AggFT: Low-Cost Fault-Tolerant Smart Meter Aggregation with Proven Termination and Privacy

no code implementations18 Feb 2021 Günther Eibl, Sanaz Taheri-Boshrooyeh, Alptekin Küpçü

We revisit an existing error-resilient privacy-preserving aggregation protocol based on masking and improve it by: (i) performing changes in the cryptographic parts that lead to a reduction of computational costs, (ii) simplifying the behaviour of the protocol in the presence of faults, and showing a proof of proper termination under a well-defined failure model, (iii) decoupling the computation part from the data flow so that the algorithm can also be used with homomorphic encryption as a basis for privacy-preservation.
